My provider/host/server does not seem to work with your plugin
OK, there are some administrator outside which treat their services very strict. Mass mailing can always be misused for spamming. That’s why you should ask your admin for current restrictions on mail sending. Pass their answers to me. And by the way, if you are starting a serious business than you should not put your website on a cheap mass web host without any personal support.
Problems with automatic sending. Why are some mails send by the hour instead daily or even three times in a row?
The build in scheduler of WordPress which I use in this plugin is not 100% reliable. This seems to be a bug. It’s already an issue in the bug tracking system of the WordPress developers. Have a look: http://core.trac.wordpress.org/. Emu2 is still beta. If you don’t want to get into trouble with your users I advice you to turn this automatic function off until the bug is fixed.
How can I give certain users the ability to use EMU2?
Scroll down in settings menu and you will find the different capabilities. You can assign them to different roles, hence to your users. I would advice you to use the plugin [User Role Eitor].

Hello
Ever since I upgraded there are emails sent like this one
Digest of Your WordPress Troubles Are Now Officially Over: http://gbpcentral.com
Thank you
to all members can you please let me know if there is problem with upgrade or is there any setting I need to change.
GovPatel
This should be fixed with version 0.81b.
Now a digest mail will only be sent if there actually are new posts.
Hello Juergen,
I have a small issue.. I just updated to version “0.80b (09.06.2011)” … It is now automatically sending “digest mail” to every member on our website.. I think the auto message is going with a gap of few minutes..
In the settings, “Schedule time of digest mail: the time field is empty.. Then why is it sending the digest mail again and again??
Please let me know, how to stop or get hold on this issue?
Thanks & Looking Forward to your earliest reply, Thanks
Mohsin
Oh, may be I found it… I just pressed “save changes”.. Now there is no more schedule..
I like the option to send a scheduled digest email, but the plugin seems to be sending this to all users every hour since I updated.
The scheduled time is not set, and I can’t find a way to turn it off, which would be nice, especially if you want to stop sending digests.
Thanks for a great plugin.
Tony

I’m getting multiple “Digest NOT sent” emails every day:
from WordPress chris@fourfax.co.uk
to chris@fourfax.co.uk
date Wed, Jun 15, 2011 at 9:44 AM
subject Digest NOT sent
There are no new posts
Running version 0.81b
Please have a look at the FAQs
wordpress 3.1
This is waht I am getting instead of the notice that someone has posted a page or post. Any idea on how to fix this so it goes back to the default of emailing notices to the members again? This is driving me nuts!
digest NOT sent there are no new posts
Hi
I want to change the email address that sends out the emails but can’t find where to do it. I go to Emu2 settings page and type in the name and address in “individual sender name” and “individual sender address” and then save but it makes no difference. I can’t find where else to change it. Please help.
Thanks
You don’t have to change it.
Send the mail right away.
It should work.
Nope. I changed the individual sender name and the individual sender address, then clicked save on the settings page. Then I went straight to the Send to users page and sent myself a test email. The “Sender” email address hadn’t changed I noticed, but I sent it anyway. And sure enough, it came from the old email address not the new one. What do I do?
I have recieve two times this E-Mail from my WordPress 3.1.3.:
Subject:
Digest NOT sent
E-Mail Text:
There are no new posts
This is your Plugin, can you fix this? I have not send this E-Mail to me, the Plugin send it alone. Please stop this, thanks.

I am having a huge problem. First I am getting registrations that claim that they did not register. Secondly, many emails are going out every day to the same user. It seems that the same email is going out to the same user numerous times a day.
ANy thoughts?
Thanks

Hello to all Users who are facing trouble / problem with the AUTO DIGEST E-MAILS.. I also had to face the same problem.. But I found a very easy solution for it..
Once you install the Email User 2 plugin…
Go the the Email User 2 Settings.. There you will see “Schedule time of digest mail” and next to it a box for time.. Just leave or make that box blank and press “SAVE CHANGES” button, that is just under it..
Auto Digest Emails won’t stop until you press “SAVE CHANGES”..
See the srceenshot: http://icanido.webs.com/Email-Users-2.jpg
Hope the problem will get resolved, as mine did!
Hi,
Thank you for creating this plugin. It’s really powerful.
I need your help, as mentioned in FAQ section by you “I advice you to turn this automatic function off until the bug is fixed.”, can you please let me know how to turn off the automatic digest sending completely. I want to email users manually, as and when I need.
Thank you for your time and energy.
Regards,
Amar
What is so complicated in the sentence: “leave empty for no schedule”?
Hi,
I have left it empty but it still sends me (admin) an email every hour “Digest Not Sent” and whenever a new post is made it automatically sends an email to all users.
Let me know if you need more details.
Thanks and regards,
Amar
I have read and understood his warning about the build in scheduler of WordPress, my case worse than Andy says in his commentary. I receive dozens of emails with the same content “Digest NOT sent” and “There are no new posts” every day and worst of all … I uninstalled the plugin 2 weeks ago! Are supposed to uninstall your plugin this will also erase all your data from the database.
How can this be happening? and most importantly HOW DO I SOLVE THIS DRAWBACK???
Regards
This “Digest NOT sent” mail is only to inform you that there was NO digest sent today because there were no new posts.
And when you uninstall this plugin it will only remove the date related to this plugin.
The plugin itself does NOT touch your database tables.
I understand your explanation but I still have this problem, the plugin was uninstalled and I receive dozens of emails every day. What should I do to stop receiving these emails?
Regards
Thank you for your NO support! Every day I delete dozens of emails “Digest NOT Send” and all thanks to you and your damn plugin. You are in my thoughts every morning ..
Regards
Hello Juergen,
One thing is still not fixed.. The FORMATTING (spacing) of the text.. All the text in e-mail message, gets mixed up..
To make it simpler: The tag is might be not working..
Is there any solution?
Thanks & Looking Forward..
Mohsin
Ah, two times the tag got lost…
The LINE BREAK TAG… Here you can see it : http://www.w3schools.com/tags/tag_br.asp
Try a second mail client.
Formatting? Spacing?
You can’t format a HTML mail unless you don’t use tables
Juergen,
Thanks for your prompt reply..
Actually I don’t need formatting.. I just need to have “LINE BREAK” in-between the text / sentences..
Right now.. When I write 5 or more lines.. They all become like one Paragraph..
I am using the 0.81b on wordpress 3.1. And it is not sending any emails. Am I missing a step? This is exactly what I need other then the fact that its not emailing.
Nevermind I figured it out. It turns out you have to use an email from the domain. Thank you so much for this amazing plugin.
Hey dude, cool picture of you by the pool. Question, how do I delete email addresses (recipients) from the Email Users 2 database? I want to remove some subscribers.
Thanks,
fz
Thank you,
EMU2 does not have an own database. It is simply linked to the WordPress user database.
So, if you want to delete a email address simply delete the corresponding user.
Or if you don’t want to delete him put him in a group name “no_mails_please” (or whatever) and don’t mail him.
But the user itself can configure if he wants to be mail by the digest function in his user settings – just scroll down and deactivate:
Accept to recieve emails sent to multiple recipients (but still accept emails sent only to me)
Thanks for the detailed answer. I appreciate it.
Danm nice plugin.!
Just what the doctor ordered.
But seriously it saves me a lot of time when I have to write my authors, if you have guest authors then this is a must have.!
u don’t want to delete him put him in a group name “no_mails_please” (or whatever) and don’t mail him.

I tried using the plugin yesterday and had a problem that turned out to be another plugin.
The other plugin allowed me to set how many emails would be sent in an hour to keep my Hosts happy. It did its job well, but cut off most of the emails, so I’m just wondering if you have any plans to add that feature into your plugin?
Thanks
Gary
Hello, Gary.
from my experience I would advice you to find a less restrictive host. With cheap hosts like that you will always run into trouble.
If you want a serious business you have to invest.
The differences between 1.000 mails an hour and 100.000 should only make a few bucks.
Even if I made a workaround in my plugin (which I won’t due to little time) should will sooner or later run into another problems because of this restrictions.
I have tried sending a test mail myself. But I didn’t receive any of the email. What is the mail function to be used, either built in function or php. Have I missed something in the settings?
If you don’t get the test mail contact your host’s admin.
He should tell you which settings to chose.
Hello Juergen,
Thanx for your plugin
Do you now, is it possible to import user from csv file
Oleg
Try using this: http://teleogistic.net/code/wordpresswordpress-mu/simple-import-users/
Is it possible to send emails weekly instead of daily?
Hello Jurergen,
I use it the plugint prepared by you and i love it!
How it would be possible to change it the EMU2 plugint let me be able to choose from 2 template the letter dispatch?
Thank you
Sorry, no time.
Hi. And thanks for your work.
Do you plan to add an attachement option ? It would be interesting to get such a possibility.
